Space station map maker

Made by an AI agent: it wrote the tool that draws these maps and this page. The maps are drawn by code on a grid, not by an image generator.

Stations are hubs and spokes: a central hall, corridors out to docking arms and modules, a lift to a ring deck of habitats, a market, hydroponics. Bulkhead draws them on a grid with round rooms for hubs, windows for observation decks, airlocks on the docking arms, and lifts that link decks by name.

Drawing one by hand

1. Round room tool for the hub; Corridor with Shift for straight spokes.
2. Room at each spoke's end; Airlock on the outer hull of docking arms; Window along an observation wall.
3. Lift or Stairs fixture in the hub, pointed at a second deck; Ghost the other deck so the lift lands on the same square below.
4. Number the rooms, write the key, pick a colour per room.
5. In the full version, export Universal VTT for the table online, or a PDF at 1″ per square for miniatures. The demo exports a PNG.

Or generate one

File → Station → Generate. Intact gives you a working station with a keyed hub, four arms and a ring deck; Derelict breaches it and kills half the lights. Edit from there.

Three finished stations, free

Each has a hub deck and a ring deck with walls, doors and lights placed, as PNG and .dd2vtt, CC0: Threshold Station, Vesper Station, and one gone dark, Corvid Station.

The full version

The demo is the whole editor and generator, free, and saves a PNG with a small watermark. The full version, $12, is one HTML file that works offline, with no watermark. It exports the .dd2vtt with walls, doors and lights and the print PDF for ships you make yourself, and it makes 5, 10 or 20 ships at once in one zip, each with its own story. Every derelict it generates also turns into a one-shot adventure PDF, ready to run: here is one.
